Võ Văn Thương, 59 years old, and his wife Nguyễn Thị Út Em, 58 years old, make a living by growing vegetables, so life is very difficult. They cannot afford to build a well and have to use river water. During the dry season, they must use salty water. They currently live at 69/3, Thạnh An Hamlet, Bình Thạnh Commune, Thạnh Phú District, Bến Tre Province, now part of Thạnh Phú Commune, Vĩnh Long Province.
